No need for anything special, and we could even use that to debug panel issues at runtime. We need a lot of the dp things already anyway for the dp validation stuff, but since that was debug Dave shot down my idea to just go with props. But here we have another user, and this one will have full abi compat requirements. So no longer any reasons to not go with props imo. Or else we just smash an entire vbt into acpi, for my that's ok (we need to deal with vbt anyway). -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation +41 (0) 79 365 57 48 - http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ Intel-gfx mailing list Intel-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/intel-gfx
